I don't eat chocolate or snags.
My tolerance for exercise is poor lately. Doing any seems to make me worse.
Well, my mind has just gone to mush so I'll have to comment more later when I can think again.

There are non-NSAID migraine medications like sumatriptan, lamotrigine which are taken as soon as you get the first inkling of a migraine coming on (which sounds very much like what you describe). I think the suggestion of seeing a Neurologist, but one that specialises in Headaches, is the way to go.
Best of luck to you.
